Soft & chewy pudding cookies filled with peanut butter M&Ms and mini chocolate chips.
My first attempt at a pudding cookie and I’m a fan.
How could I not be a fan of a soft cookie that is filled with peanut butter M&Ms and chocolate chips?
I made these for my cousin’s birthday and they were quickly eaten up.
